SUN CARE Derma CITY BB Oil-Free Mattifying Cream SPF 50+ 30ml - Floslek

CITY BB Oil-Free Mattifying Cream SPF 50+ with niacinamide, yeast extract, and UVA and UVB filters

Problem, oily, and combination skin can seem like a skincare challenge during a hot summer in the city. You can rise to the challenge by using a toning cream that conceals skin imperfections.

CITY BB Oil-Free Mattifying Cream SPF 50+ Sun Care DERMA is a lightweight, non-comedogenic, water-resistant toning cream that adapts to your skin tone and provides a mattifying effect. It works perfectly as a lightweight concealer. It conceals imperfections and redness. It reduces sebum production and prevents clogged pores. It intensely moisturizes, restores the skin’s elasticity, regenerates, brightens, and soothes. It serves as an excellent makeup base but also works well on its own, replacing foundation. It protects against the harmful effects of UVA and UVB radiation. An ideal daily sunscreen, as confirmed by application studies**.

A summer skincare product for oily and combination skin

Overactive sebaceous glands manifest as shiny skin, especially in the T-zone—the forehead, nose, and chin. Excess sebum contributes to clogged sebaceous gland openings, leading to the formation of blackheads. Excessive, unsightly skin shine can occur at any time of year, including summer. The skin’s natural defense mechanism against the sun is increased melanin production and thickening of the epidermis. UV radiation can also exacerbate skin dryness, which signals the sebaceous glands to increase sebum production. More sebum means noticeably shinier skin. So how can you break this vicious cycle and care for oily and combination skin in the summer?

Remember to cleanse your skin regularly and thoroughly using products formulated with mild cleansing ingredients.

The second step in proper skincare, after cleansing, is moisturizing the skin. Take a holistic approach to moisturizing—drink at least 2 liters of water a day and use creams that seal the skin’s hydrolipid barrier. A well-sealed skin barrier prevents excessive water loss from the skin.

The third step is a facial sunscreen.

Opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic, multifunctional products that provide:

• protection against UV radiation,
• a mattifying effect,
• coverage for skin imperfections.

How to choose a tinted moisturizer for summer?

A summer product for oily, acne-prone, or combination skin should have a lightweight texture that doesn’t leave a “mask-like” effect on the skin or clog pores. It’s also important that it contain active ingredients that regulate sebum production and help prevent blackheads. Summer is a great opportunity to give your skin a break from heavy makeup and replace it with a BB cream. A toning cream will effectively conceal imperfections.

The OIL-FREE BB MATTIFYING CREAM SPF 50+ Sun Care DERMA facial BB cream contains:

niacinamide – reduces sebum production, prevents blackheads, prevents discoloration, and evens out skin tone. It soothes, regenerates, and has antioxidant properties. Niacinamide influences ceramide synthesis, thereby sealing the skin’s hydrolipid barrier and preventing water loss through the skin.

yeast extract – inhibits the activity of sebaceous glands, reduces the formation of blackheads, and has astringent properties.
